Before It Airs Again:'The Flash' And Its Flashpoint

Before it returns to our screens today I wanted to give a brief summation of what we have gotten for The Flash's TV return. The third season premiere is called "Flashpoint" an homage to the classic storyline of the same name, which showed how dire the consequences are of saving Nora Allen, The Flash's mother, on that damning night of her murder. You can see stills from the episode down below and some more information we have gotten too!

Trailers and scenes from the episode:

Keiynan Lonsdale's Kid Flash first look:

Andrew Kreisberg and Todd Helbing had an interview with FlashTV News in which he talked about the effects Flashpoint will have in the series, how some of the characters have been changed, and lastly some of the new speedsters we are going to get.Flashpoint effects:Everything is different. Barry grew up with Joe and Iris, and now in Flashpoint he grows up with his parents, so he doesn’t have that same relationship with Joe or with Iris. He had a schoolboy crush on Iris growing up, and then some time had passed, and so he has to approach her from a different angle. He can’t just be “Hey, Iris. I’m Barry Allen! You know, we used to… oh, right, we didn’t live together because that never happened.” So just their relationship is a completely different experience for him, and it’s a challenge now because he still sees Iris, she’s still beautiful, he still has a crush on her… it’s “how do I now approach this girl who I know all of these things about, but I can’t say anything?”

Character differences:

What we did with Earth-2 was [that] every character was a little different. There was a distinction without a difference. Iris was a cop, which she had ambitions [for] on Earth-1, but Joe put the kibosh on that. With Joe, he was a lounge singer…. In Flashpoint, we’re trying to keep that alive, where there are just slight differences. Cisco may be a billionaire, but deep down he still has the heart of gold that the Cisco that we know and love.

Speedsters:

Awesome. I would say, especially when we have another speedster, we always want to do something different, and we certainly do that with Savitar. There’s a psychological game that’s going to be going on between he and Barry, which is a little bit different; and much like his name means “God of Speed,” he is kind of this cult-y figure.

[Savitar] will not be in the black suit. [The evil looking dude in the footage] is The Rival. The Rival is going to be in the first episode.

And so concludes this "Before It Airs Again" for The Flash, I'll end with the premiere's synopsis which gives us more details, albeit vague ones, about the show's return. I'll do something like this for other shows that are returning like Arrow, Legends and Supergirl.

WHAT WOULD YOU SACRIFICE TO HAVE EVERYTHING YOU’VE EVER WANTED? — Barry (Grant Gustin) is living his dream life – his parents are alive, he’s asked Iris West (Candice Patton) on a date and he can finally be a normal guy as Central City has another speedster, Kid Flash (Keiynan Lonsdale), running around saving the city. When Barry starts forgetting parts of his old life, the Reverse Flash (guest star Matt Letscher) taunts his nemesis and tells him that there will be serious repercussions for Barry and the ones he loves if he continues to live in this alternate universe. In addition to losing his memories, his powers will also start to fade. When disaster strikes, Barry must decide if he wants to continue to live in this world as Barry Allen or return to his universe as The Flash. Jesse Warn directed the episode with story by Greg Berlanti & Andrew Kreisberg and teleplay by Brooke Roberts (FL301). Original airdate 10/4/2016.

With the film coming out in just a matter of weeks it's time for Blade Runner 2049's stills to be shown off. One can check out a bevy of stills, that feature Ryan Gosling, Harrison Ford, Jared Leto, Ridley Scott, and many more faces including the film's director - Denis Villeneuve, down below. I have also added some conceptual art pieces down at the bottom too, if one wanted them.Special Looks:

After coming off a glorious success from this year's Wonder Woman, Gal Gadot has become a sought after actress, and now the actress is making a move.

The move, if talks go well, is to join Metro-Goldwyn Meyer's Deeper, a drama that will also have Bradley Cooper. The film's plot revolves around a disgraced astronaut, who wishes to explore the deepest point on Earth at a newly discovered oceanic trench. Ensuing events puts the astronaut in exponential danger that sees him face a fight on two fronts - psychological and physical - against mysterious forces.

Max Landis penned the script of the film, that will be directed by Kornel Mundruczo. Producing will be done by Landis with David Goyer, a collaboration of Phantom Four and Addictive Pictures. Kevin Turen for Phantom 4 and Russell Ackerman and John Schoenfelder for Addictive are also producing.

Gadot can soon be seen in cinemas when Zack Snyder's Justice League comes out in November.

Every film has an on set still photographer, who captures the more important moments in a film from their unique perspective. Warner Brothers' upcoming Patty Jenkins-directed Wonder Woman, is no different as Clay Enos, the man who has taken all the DC Films' stills and promotional shoots up until now, was on set to take photographs so that we can have a fly on the wall look at the film.
Here, on this page, you will find that there are numerous stills in various locations with different people in them taken by Enos and some from screen captures of the film with posters for the film as well, to look at. Enjoy.

Do you wish to watch a dumb-fun action film come the latter end of December? Well it looks like Sony Pictures have got you covered with Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. Releasing a second batch of trailers - one domestic the other international - for the film, we get a better sense at what the audience can expect, which is a fun, popcorn-munching blockbuster film.

When four high-school kids discover an old video game console with a game they’ve never heard of – Jumanji – they are immediately drawn into the game’s jungle setting, literally becoming the avatars they chose: gamer Spencer becomes a brawny adventurer (Dwayne Johnson); football jock Fridge loses (in his words) “the top two feet of his body” and becomes an Einstein (Kevin Hart); popular girl Bethany becomes a middle-aged male professor (Jack Black); and wallflower Martha becomes a badass warrior (Karen Gillan). What they discover is that you don’t just play Jumanji – you must survive it. To beat the game and return to the re…

Alicia Vikander breathes new life into the cinematic world of Lara Croft, as Wanrer Bros. have released the first trailer for the 2018 film - Tomb Raider.

Warner Bros. have also released a featurette about Alicia becoming Lara Croft!

Lara Croft is the fiercely independent daughter of an eccentric adventurer who vanished when she was scarcely a teen. Now a young woman of 21 without any real focus or purpose, Lara navigates the chaotic streets of trendy East London as a bike courier, barely making the rent, and takes college courses, rarely making it to class. Determined to forge her own path, she refuses to take the reins of her father’s global empire just as staunchly as she rejects the idea that he’s truly gone. Advised to face the facts and move forward after seven years without him, even Lara can’t understand what drives her to finally solve the puzzle of his mysterious death.Going explicitly against his final wishes, she leaves everything she knows behind in search of her dad’…
